" What an irony in place.
I want to love you like a man has never loved a women till date.
Yet everytime I see you. Your betrayals kill me. Making me hate you yet love you.
Beyond rationality, leaving me on verge of going insane"
- Mateo King
.....
She was laying on her stomach. Her back bandaged up. Face pressed on the mattress. And her body flaring with fever.
Her body shivered occasionally. With her body adjusting to temperature on it's own.
Sweat covering her entire body. Her bandages wet with it.
She was in half conscious state. The bad memories making surface in her vulnerable mind. The voices echoing. Playing with her rational self.
" This bitc*h? Isn't she the Traitor's daughter?"
" She looks beautiful though. Why don't we use her before we kill her?"
" S-t..op please...."
" Come on...we won't hurt you swee
She opens her eyes at the memory, making his eyes to wide and his frame to move back slightly.The softness in his eyes, freezing to be cold again.Putting on the mask again.Pushing him back further and with the little strength left in her . She moves back from him. Pressing her back to the wall of the dungeon. Hugging her knees.Not caring if the wounds hurt more.Determined to go away from himHe clenches his fist. Seeing her behave like that. As if his touch has burned him.Approaching her. He speaks in a low dangerous voice." Did you just dared to push me away?"He seethes. His words a warning. But this time. She wasn't backing down. Looking back into his eyes with rebellious eyes." And what's that look , huh? Lower your eyes Eirene. I am your king now!"She refuses. Her eyes set in stone at him. And he grips her chin." So you are angry at me ? What did you expect? For me to open
Eirene's povI wake up to the feeling of a moving car. Opening my eyes I try to look around. To only find something dark blocking my vision.I try to remove it with my hands when another fear roots in my heart on realising my arms to be tied behind my back. I thrash. Trying to lift myself from the leather seat. When the driver makes a sharp cut and I literally fall down with my face hitting the seat.AggghhhDamn this! Where am I?I wanted to speak. But I bite my lip. Remembering that mute sh*t." Calm down Eirene. It's just me."I recognise Arthur's voice and I feel relief floods in. Thank moon Goddess I didn't speak or my secret would have been out." I am really sorry for tieing your hands and the blindfold. But I was ordered by bro."What the hell is going on?What does he mean. And why do I feel weird.Like there is an emp
Eirene's povRogue Lands are quite vast and technically speaking. No one can claim ownership on them legally. One can live on them, make a community of their own. But no permanent establishment.However this law didn't stop the rogues from putting their claims on it. Some areas have been known to be under them since centuries and one of such areas is NR 423 , a stretch of 200 kilometres to the north of the Royal province.The area is prohibited and dangerous. The rogues there monsters, who have lost their sanity. And amongst them one such rogue who leads them is he.The Alpha of Rogues.I have just heard stories about him. Like others. The stories that are more of a horror ones instead of inspiration.He is feared by everyone. A prodigy as others call.As his blood is not normal. He is a Lycan.The superior race of us werewolves. Most Lycan's die b
Eirene's povWhat the f- fudge!Like seriously. How the hell did he came to know. I guess my expression gave it away. Because I see his smirk only widen and I gulp." Wh-at are you saying Mr Abelado ? A girl? That's hilarious."I say cracking a smile. Trying to avoid his gaze. While he keeps his eyes on me. Not finding anything humourous in this.Filling up my glass. I gulp another drink. Trying to calm my nerves. When I feel his presence behind.He was just standing behind me. His scent suffocating me.What the hell is this man's problem? Has he heard about personal space?" Mr Abelard-"My words get lost. When I feel him sniffing me. And my entire body stiffens." I don't find anything hilarious in the fact that you are a girl Viper. On the other hand I must say I am impressed."My grip on the glass tightens and I turn around to give him a piece
Mateo King's pov." All the preperations have been done your Majesty. The invitation to all the provinces have been sent."" Hmmm"I barely reply. Sitting on my throne. My chin placed on hlmy palm as I was least interested in this topic." We have also been receiving some personal requests as well. I would like to show it to you of you have time?"The speaker says, rubbing his neck in awkwardness. And I furrow my brows to look at him in irritation." Personal requests? What do you mean? Speak clearly?"And he gulps before taking out few letters from seals of different provinces . Offering it to me." See for yourself your Majesty?I take the letters from his hand. Opening the first one, to only have a flowerly scent hit my senses.It's sweetness already made me cringe.Disregarding. I read the words written on it. And they made me cringe e
The Royal hall was filled to it's full capacity. Dark red carpets adored the marbled tiles below and huge chandeliers were hanging from the ceiling. Illuminating the place.The usual chatter was following. With few couples dancing at the slow music. Twirling their partners. The identities of everyone was hept hidden as some wore masks on their eyes. Complementing the colour of their dresses.King Titanius and Eric were present in the special ocassion as well. While Titanius was busy talking business with pack Alpha's. Eric was being his usual self. Flirting around with princesses.Yet today, the focus of all the women was on him.The man who walked with persona cold as ice and eyes narrowed. Creases evident on his forehead and he did nothing to hide how he felt.Agitated. Least interested. Bored.Gulping another glass of the throat burning alcohol. He looks aro
Titanius's jaw hardens and fists clench as he looks at Abelardo. While Rose looked to excited to see her cousin brother.She moves forward to envelope him in a hug when Titanius stops her by holding her wrists. Making a sudden sadness to flash in her eyes." But-"" No Rose."She nods lowering her head.Accepting his command and Ardo's fists clench in subdued anger. Looking up at Titanius, he speaks in a voice laced in coldness." Good evening father. Long time no see."And that's when Mateo and Eirene look at him in horror. Father? So he was him? Christopher? The eldest son of King Titanius. The one who left his father and went rogue years back?Titanius seethes with refined coldness. Stepping closer." What the hell are you doing here?"And Ardo smirks. Rubbing his jaw to look at him in boredom." Well. I am here to enjoy like others father."" Bulls*it! Nothing good happens wherever you go!"Titani
Eirene's povMy heart thuds rapidly with each step he takes closer to me. To have him stops right in front of me.His grey eyes boring holes into mine. As he offers his palm for me to take." May I get a chance to dance, my Queen?"I clench my fists. My Queen. The word sounds like a mockery coming from his lips. What's this game that he is playing?Feeling my nerves wreck under the heated stare of everyone, I wasn't left any choice.I had to do this.Relaxing my fisted palms. I place it in his hand and thankfully there were no sparks. Pheww atleast my secret was safe.A smirk covers his lips. Seeing I couldn't refuse this time.And before I know I feel his other hand rest on my waist. As he pulls me towards him. Making me stumble forward.My widened brown orbs meet his grey ones again. As he hardens his grip on me.Making it almost painful. But I refuse
3 years Later -" When the upper hook reaches the full extension in order to guard the chin. Lead shoulder is brought forward like this."Eirene enacts. While the warriors nod. Staring at her every movement." If you don't guard. The attacker can easily reach you from the left side and grab your neck."" As you all must be knowing. Neck is the most vulnerable spot for us werewolves. Protect it at any cost."" Understood?"" Yes Ma'am!"" I didn't hear you. Have you guys had your breakfast today or not? Why are you tired when the session has just started."No one says anything. Just lowering their heads. Just started? It has been 2 hours already.Their body was sore. Their limits have been crossed.But for Eirene. Every limit is a new beginning. They have to cross it if they have to be the best.She was breaking hers everyday.Clapping her hands. To get their attention. She begins the next circuit." Okay now partner up. Let's see what you have understood. Attackers attack at my call. B
Anticipation persists in the royal ballroom. As everyone waits , staring at Christopher. On his knees proposing to their werewolf Queen.Ardo's orbs wait for only one sign. Just one indication to ease his thrashing heart.But nothing.He could see nothing in Eirene's brown orbs that have turned cold and detached over the years.Her silence, strengthening his belief.That this was nothing but a mistake.Which will strain his relation with her forever. And there will be no coming back after this.But what to do? He had to take a chance.If not for himself. But for the boy who was looking at him with big hopeful grey eyes.She can love him all that she can.But the love of a father?His absence?She can never fill that void. She needs him. Noah needs him. If only she understands.Standing there like a statue. She does nothing. Just stares at the Rose. Making the anticipation to worsen.While the crowd. Starts cheering. Encouraging her.Happy with him being their King, knowing no one deserv
5 Years LaterThe Royal town was decorated with pink and white flowers. Everywhere.Celebrations at full swing." Oh gosh! Just half an hour is left. Why isn't the cake here yet?"Charlie speaks. Looking around in anxiousness. To only find Jay coming towards him." Chill man. It's coming. Why so stressed."" Why so stressed? That little devil is going to kill me! "Jay chuckles. When a voice comes from behind. Making them go still." Uncle Charlie!"Turning around they look at the boy of mere 5 standing behind them. With hands folded in front of his chest.His grey eyes staring at them. An eyebrow lifted in question and lips in a thin line." Yes your highness"" I am no highness Uncle ChalieI am just Noah !"The boy stomps his feet. And Noah lifts his hands in defeat." Yah yah Noah Sir. What is it?"" It's not Sir either. Call just Noah nah."Charlie and Jay share a smile. To look back at the adorable boy." Okay Noah. Just as you wish, now tell me. Why are you her
Ajax plunges in the dagger, into Eirene's chest. But before the dagger could even touch her.A body leaps in front of her. Taking the impact.Ajax's hand holding the dagger. Gets coated in blood and his eyes widen realising who has taken the impact.His hands retreat immediately. Horror covering his features. As he speaks in disbelief." S-on?"Mateo holds his chest. Where the wooden dagger has pierced past his skin. Blood oozing out. His breathing rugged.Eirene's eyes widen. As she sees Mateo falling back. And she steps forward. To catch him before his body could touch the ground.His back hits her chest. Her arms wrapping around his torso . To steady him.Their eyes meet and Eirene couldn't help feel dread inside her.Her heart thudding rapidly. As she speaks in fear." Mat?"His eyes were dropping. His heavy breath hitting her face. As Eirene moves forward her hand to hold the dagger rooted in his chest." Hold on Mat."Tightening her grip on the dagger. She roots it out. And a s
People still. Fearing their death as Misaki's red orbs stared back at them. Through the eyes of the person they thought was their saviour." H-e is in her! He will kill us all!!"The people shout in panic. Everyone's heart thudding. Ready to run to save their lives.When a voice speaks. Making them stand still.Looking at the girl in shock." It's under control. Calm down."Eirene's voice made them look at her in horror. She was there! She was able to control Misaki! It was a wonder! Never has something like this happened ever before.No one was strong enough to tame the strongest beasts soul.Then how could this mere girl?And that's when realisation settles in that this girl was no normal girl. She was the chosen one.Moon Goddess had chosen her to give justice.A pure soul with a purpose to serve." You did it my Lady!"The head witch speaks bowing down and everyone else follows. Bowing down at her.Yet Eirene 's eyes were fixed on one person.The beast form has demolished, to onl
Slow winds blow past the arena as Viper stood there. His hand on the mask as everyone waits in anticipation. To see the real him behind.Pin drop silence stretching.Everyone's eyes fixed on him.Moving his face to a side. Viper drops the mask.His brown eyes set at the crowd.And gasps follow." A girl?"" How is this possible?"" Isn't she the one who was banished?"People start speaking out their thoughts. Unable to believe. While Ardo stares at her in pure shock.His mouth dry and eyes widened.Meeting his eyes, Eirene sadly smiles. Giving her answer." There is good and there is evil Ardo. If we only see the evil in others? How can we keep the good in us alive?"Looking around at the people. She answers all the unanswered questions." They may have hurt me. Some may have even wished death for me while few ...."Meeting Mateo's eyes. That were looking at her like he has seen a miracle. She continues." Proclaimed so many promises. Gave me unconditional love to only take it back and
Mateo's povI deserve to die.Not many will say this themselves. They may not even admit their mistakes. But I do.I was so wrong.I committed grave sins.And for them. There was no forgiveness.I don't deserve to be forgiven. Even death would be an easy punishment for a bastard like me.However all my thoughts get interrupted as the beasts grip on me drops, a new foreign energy entering the arena, which may be foreign but known by everyone.ViperHis name is enough to send chills. But with the capture of Christopher. And him admitting that he was Viper.This fear seemed to have gone lost somewhere.Untill now.Everyone gasps looking at Viper in disbelief. With even Misaki turning around to take notice of him.With long confident steps. Viper walks in. His focus solely on one person.MisakiChristopher struggles to get up. His entire frame bloody. To fail miserably. Clenching the soil in his hands.He looked beyond happy. Desperate to reach Viper.A smile of disbelief on
Eirene's povThere is a point in everyone's life,when one feels everything is over. It's too serene. Too peaceful.I don't know where I am. But it feels like somewhere out of the world.The most beautiful place I have ever seen.The aura was heavenly.The sound of water audible. Like a stream was flowing.I feel something soft under my feet, to look down. There was soft green glass under my feet and I was barefoot.Where am I ?How did I come here." Hello? Anyone here?"I ask. Looking around to find no one. Was I the only one here. I start feeling anxious suddenly when I hear a voice behind me." Eirene my child"Turning around. I am met with the most beautiful women I had ever seen. She had a garland of white lilies around her head. A long beautiful floor touching white maxi dress adoring her.Squirrels chirp coming near her feet.And she crouches down. Opens her hands and I am surprised to see small nuts in them.The squirrels pick them up and start munching on them.
They say that whenever evil rises in this world. And the brim of sin crosses all boundaries. Is when a messiah is born.A saviour who rises to restore peace.To save the good and end the evil.But today with dark clouds covering the night sky, stink of blood mixing in the air and pile of dead bodies lining the ground.The hope for a messiah was diminishing.The eyes of the bystanders and wounded tearing, seeing the hell which has descended on earth.All in the name of a man's desire for power of the strongest wolf ever known.The consequences of giving rise to Misaki.Ardo was breathing heavily. Pinned under Miskaki's . Who was growling ferociously. At the man that has rooted a knife in his shoulder.Lifting himself up. Ardo looks at his protector in surprise.Mateo stood there. Holding a tree bark for support. His eyes set on Misaki.Let alone him, everyone there knew that his or
